F/S: Modded E39 M5

[markchap]

Well...I'm thinking about selling my car.

Its a 2001 Anthracite E39 M5 with 58,xxx miles.

The car has been wonderful to me and I have had an amazing time driving the beast. I'm thinking about selling now and moving into an E90 M3 when they come out.

My car was in a minor accident in the beginning of October which involved very light body work on the drivers side front bumper and headlights (not my fault...and allowed me to get Euro headlights and PredatorICE AE's)

What I recently had done:
- the door dings removed
- front and rear bumpers resprayed
- front and rear brake pads
- rear rotors
- replaced U-joint
- replaced serpentine belt
- Service B
- Ipod hook-up (DICE I think...it's not even installed yet)
- Brand new rear tires (fronts only have 4,000 miles on them)
- replaced spark plugs (NGK)
- recently smogged (California)

Mods:
- See my 'sig'

Price: $38,500

I have more pics of the car if you would like them...and NO I do not want to part out my car because I already sold all the OEM parts.

looks like a clean and badass car! good luck on the sale!

[supark]

holy crap - gorgeous car

[markchap]

thank you for the compliments :D

[geftman]

i'm not buying the car, and it does look amazing, but i really believe that 42k is a bit too much.
if you'll find a buyer - awesome, but at this price, especially at winter time (When all bmws sell cheaper), its a bit steep

Maybe I'll wait for summer to sell the car...I'm in no rush.

[MIMI1]

will you take a kidney?

[bmwlovr]

Gorgeous. Good Luck with the sale. Only thing left to do is change out the wood trim.

[apollo322]

That is an absolutely beautiful car. I hope you get your price for it, it sure seems like it's worth every penny of 38,500.

[jahcool5]

If I didnt buy my E46M3 last year I would jump all over this car. Nice looking, good luck with the sale.

[Ehayes46]

Holy crap what a deal. I'm getting a huge promotion on March 1. Save it for me:)

[markchap]

haha...get your promotion today :D

[imola e36]

Very interested, but I have to sell my car first. unless you want to trade;)

does it have shades? m audio? full leather or extended leather? thanks - aw

[///M3Augy]

That is one sick M5 too bad you don't live near me...

[Ben Carufel]

Damn, Mark, sorry to see you selling. The E92 M3 will definitely be a car worth switching to, I'd guess.

Hope you get every penny of your asking price!

[DEFKON99]

will you take a kidney?

My thoughts exactly ;)

[markchap]

Very interested, but I have to sell my car first. unless you want to trade;)

No shades or M audio (still has great sound/bass). Yes it does have the extended leather. PM me if you have more questions.

[Ben Carufel]

Be thankful for no shades. I call them the "rattle package" on my M5 :(.

[Ehayes46]

haha...get your promotion today :D


Ha! I wish man! G/L with your sale!

[Butler]

Wow... I only wish. :drool: Top 3 cleanest M5's I have ever seen.


A bit out of my price range, But not out of my dads price range... :evil2

bump to pg. 1...

[markchap]

[racerx0911]

trade for a 03 530i? check sig...but a hell of a down grade for u

[sogood]

Trade for my car?

[markchap]

trade for a 03 530i? check sig...but a hell of a down grade for u

I thought about the new 5-series but, as you said, it would be pretty rough for me without all the power...

[qcdstick]

The solution to this problem is painfully simple. Flat trade me for my 528, get used to that, and then driving the 530 would feel great!

[99M3Riverside]

Trade for my car plus cash?

[markchap]

Trade for my car plus cash?

Sorry...your M3 is very nice (my brother used to have one, VERY fun to drive), but I'm not looking to trade. Are you interested in buying the car though?

[rmani]

Free bump for a truly stunning car. Do you also have it listed on the m5 board? Your price looks great considering all the mods.

[WRX2M3]

Hey Mark,
Did you go to TPHS? I'm pretty sure we went to school together. Hope all goes well with your sale. Great car btw.

Hey Ben, watch it over there haha.

[Dub2Shoe2]

you're probably getting tired of non-buyers commenting on your car, but damn... one of the cleanest M5s I've seen. If I needed a 4 door your car would be first choice.

Why would he get tired of (positive) comments? It brings his thread to the top, maximising exposure.

haha, you're right keep the positive comments coming, I hate having to bump my own thread to the top.

This car will be perfect for somebody...but since it's been about a month on a few forums and autotrader it will be going up on e-bay very soon.

thanks again for all the compliments.

[markchap]

the car is now up on e-bay...I need to get it sold:
